The patients were classified into two groups: group 1 included patients with ACVDs, and group 2 (control group) included healthy individuals. All data recorded included patients' anthropometric measurements, and laboratory and clinical examinations were collected.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The rising burden of ACVDs in Egypt was caused by a variety of risk factors, including diabetes mellitus, smoking, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, and a lack of physical activity. The dominant risk factors recognized through multivariate regression analysis were the existence of metabolic syndrome (OR = 1.463; 95% CI, 1.056-2.026; P = 0.022), increased psychosocial stress among the patients (OR = 1.404; 95% CI, 1.008-1.953; P = 0.044), excessive consumption of high-fat, processed, and fast food (OR = 1.964; 95% CI, 1.489-2.590; P = 0.001), and decreased the income (OR = 1.865; 95% CI, 1.454-2.391; P = 0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Patients who suffer from uncontrolled diabetes, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome are the most liable to have ACVDs. Psychosocial stress and the excessive intake of processed, high-fat, and fast food are augmenting leading risk features, especially in low-income populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":56018,"journal":{"name":"Global Heart","volume":"20 1","pages":"11"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11804180/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143384154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
